DESERT STAR (15) made a strong late bid only to just miss when fresh from a lay-off as favourite last start over 6½f at Cranbourne. Should tighten right up following that outing. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MORRYL MORAL (5) kept coming but just failed to pick up the winner when fresh from a lay-off last start over 6½f at Bendigo. Will take a lot from that hitout. Ready to go one better. MAGNETIC PRINCE (2) did little and finished 4.5 lengths from the winner in seventh over 7f at Sandown-Hillside last start, a less impressive effort than his when resuming fourth at Warrnambool the run before. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is a major player. TIZJAMMY (6) ran below expectations last start, finishing fifth and beaten 3 lengths at Cranbourne over 1m. Should be thereabouts in this suitable race.
